Last week, we noted that federal prosecutors have charged 78 people with felonies in Minnesota, accusing them of stealing over billions of (mostly federal) taxpayer dollars from Medicaid, COVID relief, food assistance, and autism programs. Some of the money appears to have been routed to overseas terrorists in Africa.

The scandal is still growing.

The New York Times ran a front-page story on Friday exposing more of the fraud schemes:

Hundreds of state workers at the Minnesota Department of Human Services are publicly accusing Democratic Gov. Tim Walz of tolerating “massive fraud” and then retaliating against whistleblowers in an X post with 38 million views:

For years, Democrats were unwilling to tackle the massive fraud among the 80,000 Somalians living in Minnesota.

The scandal was only addressed this year by the Trump-appointed Acting U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson in Minneapolis, who says social trust has been broken in a state once known for its honesty: “We’re losing our way of life in Minnesota in a very real way.”

We will see if Minnesotans agree when they decide whether to reelect the bumbling and corrupt Governor Walz to another term.
